about
Rosie Bans is a Scottish singer songwriter whose soulful blend of jazz-tinged pop is steadily acquiring a devoted following across the UK. Born in Glasgow to a Scottish mother and a Scottish/Indian father, Rosie was encouraged in music from an early age. Based in London since 2010, her relentless gig schedule has taken her around the country, each show characterised by her tireless energy and infectious enthusiasm. Drawing inspiration from the vocal talents of Gloria Gaynor and Stevie Nicks, and from the songwriting skills of Imogen Heap and Tori Amos, Rosie's music is at once intelligent and accessible. Rich with instantly memorable choruses and rhythmic piano grooves which belie a subtle compositional complexity seldom found in pop music, it is easy to understand why her writing has such wide ranging appeal. Autumn 2011 saw Rosie take to the road with fellow singer songwriter Erin Todd on the Killer Heels UK tour, bringing her music to new audiences in major cities around England, Scotland and Wales. The response to these concerts was overwhelmingly positive, and a more extensive tour is already in the pipeline for 2012. Rosie has recorded 3 E.P.s to date, receiving airplay on local radio and being featured on the in-house playlist of Scottish coffee house chain Beanscene. She is currently working on her debut album, set for UK release in April 2012. User-contributed text is available under the Creative Commons By-SA License; additional terms may apply.
